Inventor: CHARLTON KEITH ALAN
IPC: A61P31/04
Filed: 2003-08-13
Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for the control of virulence of infectious bacteria by modulating the extra-cellular concentration of bacterial cell signalling molecules. Derivatives of cell signalling molecules are conjugated to suitable carrier proteins and used to isolate high affinity receptors recognising the native signal molecule(s). By binding to signalling molecules, the receptors reduce and maintain extra-cellular concentrations of signal molecules below the threshold level that would otherwise result in certain opportunistic pathogens adopting a virulent form, and can transform virulent organisms to non-virulent states. These receptors have applications for the treatment of individuals with susceptibility to infection, the treatment of patients with existing infections, in disease monitoring and management, and in related applications where the host for infection is an animal or plant.

Title: Device for ozone treatment of plant materials
Inventor: DUBOIS MICHEL
IPC: A23L7/109
Filed: 2003-09-26
Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel process for the ozone treatment of unground plant materials such as wheat grains. According to the invention, this process consists in allowing the plant material to stand for at least one day after a prehumidification followed by an ozonization involving a complementary humidification that adds from 3 to 10% by weight of water, based on the dry weight of the plant material. This process is applied especially to wheat grains. In this case, a process according to the invention that enables the ozone to reach the core of the grains is carried out in order to manufacture so-called "technological" flours. The physical and chemical properties of such flours, observed as a function of the parameters of the ozonization process, are presented.

Abstract: A multiple-access MIMO WLAN system that employs MIMO, OFDM, and TDD. The system (1) uses a channel structure with a number of configurable transport channels, (2) supports multiple rates and transmission modes, which are configurable based on channel conditions and user terminal capabilities, (3) employs a pilot structure with several types of pilot (e.g., beacon, MIMO, steered reference, and carrier pilots) for different functions, (4) implements rate, timing, and power control loops for proper system operation, and (5) employs random access for system access by the user terminals, fast acknowledgment, and quick resource assignments. Calibration may be performed to account for differences in the frequency responses of transmit/receive chains at the access point and user terminals. The spatial processing may then be simplified by taking advantage of the reciprocal nature of the downlink and uplink and the calibration.

Therapeutic agents may also be delivered to the region of a disease site. Also, the devices may be modified to promote endothellalization. Various materials and coating methodologies may be utilized to maintain the drugs, agents or compounds on the medical device until delivered and positioned. In addition, the devices utilized to deliver the implantable medical devices may be modified to reduce the potential for damaging the implantable medical device during deployment. Medical devices include stents, grafts, anastomotic devices, perivascular wraps, sutures and staples. In addition, various polymer combinations may be utilized to control the elution rates of the therapeutic drugs, agents and/or compounds from the implantable medical devices.

Abstract: Ribonuclease DNA coding for an amino acid sequence beginning with a residue of glutamine is introduced into evictor of pET22b(+) plasmid to form recombinan t plasmid DNA that begins with a Pel B leader sequence. The recombinant plasmi d DNA is used to transform an E.coli BL21(DE3) host. Signal peptidase enzyme present in the host cell cleaves the pelB leader sequence during signal processing and thereby allows the glutamine residue to autocyclize to pyroglutamic acid. In this way, the Ribonuclease can be produced directly, i.e. without a separate step of cleaving the initial N-terminal methionine residue.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fast coupling unit (1) for lines conducting free-flowing media, in which a check valve (5) is integrated for controlling the pressure of the medium or venting the lines conducting the medium. Said check valve (5) is arranged in a secondary branch (4) that is opened outwards and extends from the main line of the fast coupling unit (1). Its valve body (10) is moved by a restoring force from its position blocking the passage of the medium into its position allowing the passage of the medium by means of a valve lifter (12) that can be accessed from the outside. The secondary branch (4) is at the same time the valve housing (4) of the check valve (5). The valve body (10) that can be axially moved in the valve housing (4) is configured in an integral manner and has a valve cone (11), the valve seat of which is configured as a corresponding conical surface (16) in a hollow counterpiece (17) sealingly inserted in the open end of the secondary branch (4) or valve housing (4) against the inner wall thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to targeted delivery systems for delivering therapeutic agents to tumor. The invention further relates to methods of delivering a therapeutic agent to a tumor for the prevention and treatment of cancer by killing tumor cells and tumor associated endothelial cells. In particular, the present invention provides a tumor-targeted drug delivery system comprising a NGR-containing molecule linked to a delivery vehicle encapsulating a therapeutic agent, preferably a drug, such as a cytotoxic agent or a chemotherapeutic agent. Specifically, the delivery systems of the present invention are capable of delivering an increased amount of therapeutic agent to a tumor as compared to other delivery systems. In particular, the delivery systems of the present invention are capable of accumulating a higher amount of therapeutic agent in a tumor, or in the vicinity of a tumor cell or tumor-supporting cell, resulting in exposure of the tumor cell and tumor associated endothelial cell to therapeutic levels of the agent for a longer period of time as compared to other delivery systems. The present invention also describes pharmaceutical compositions comprising the delivery systems of the present invention. The present invention further relates to a tumor treatment comprising an increased amount of therapeutic agent delivered by the system of the present invention as compared to other delivery systems. The delivery systems and pharmaceutical compositions can be administered to a subject, preferably a human, alone or in combination, sequentially or simultaneously, with other prophylactic or therapeutic agents and/or anti-cancer treatments.
